Re: [Rails-spinoffs] Yahoo!-like Event object emulation/abstractioninPrototype?

[Ryan Gahl]

Yea, like I said, it might not work how I originally wrote it, because you're not using the traditional prototype-ish class or object syntax... here... re-write everything like this...

taco =
{

init: function()
{

this.x = $("myelement");
Event.observe(this.x, "click", this.jojo.bindAsEventListener(this) );

},

jojo: function(e)
{

alert(Event.element(e).id);

}

};

Event.observe(window, "onload", taco.init );



...After I looked harder I realized your main problem isn't that scope thing... it's that "target" is not a valid property of IE's Event object... lol sorry I was so blind...

so using Event.element(e).id was really all you were looking for... my bad!! I'm just going to leave the above code like that though so you can see a working example of bindAsEventListener()...

Sorry to be dense. I changed it and now IE gives me an error that
this.jojo is null or not an object.
